It's a good suit but it doesn't beat The Dark Knight suit.
Also batboy99, Good Job on making that suit look better because the nipples on it made the suit look ridiculous.

Fair point, back to topic...

I like the panther suit, but that might be because BF was the first Batman film I saw and it's always stuck with me...

Hmm, Im sure im not the only one who want this to go back to the original topic.

If you guys want to discuss the suits from '89 and returns, make a thread to do so. This is about the Panther suit.

Sorry to sound like a jerk.
But i like the Panther suit and its fun to read what other think about it too.

Were allowed to compare suits though, I dont think this should be a "this suit is better than that suit" thread, but comparing leads to good debates.

I agree, Plus, how much discussion can you get out of only the Panther suit?

"I like it."
"Yeah, it was cool."
"But it had nipples!"
"Yeah, true."

Also, since when has it been called the Panther suit?

Right, thats what Im saying, if that was the whole discussion, it'd be pretty darn boring.

Anyone think the boots on the Forever suit looked a little girly? In the opening shots of the movie where Batman walks up the metal steps and talks to Alfred, his legs look like a woman for a second.

Slim and slender, like a Victorias Secret model lol.

OK OK SO IT HAD NIPPLES... but don't you think that if it hadn't had the nips it would have been pretty damn good... I mean the suit is kind of a take on the Keaton suit which was great!

If that **** didn't have nipples, it might be the most intimidating suit yet.

What I would like to see, is the metallic almost-gold-but-not-quite belt color used as the back of the batsignal on the chest. I would also enjoy it if it wasn't so shiny.....

I do enjoy it, the nipples are a little distracting, but I'm not going to bash the suit just for that.

The way I look at it is

Favorite cape & cowl: Batman Returns

Favorite suit: BATMAN I just love how organic it comes across as

A combination of both with the right color scheme would kick mucho ass. The Panther suit particularly the cowl the most of all impressed me. I also feel it was the one Batman suit that really had the most comic bookish vibe. As I said before asthetically Kilmer was the closest to Neal Adams Batman because of this suit. I like the sonar suit too I like the color of it which does it's best to translate the traditional grays of Batman's comic costume. I loved the big oval less bat. Only problem I had with it was the cowl it looked way too busy people like to pick on the TDK look which is my favorite so far BTW but they forget how ugly that thing was. With the little lines on the side as if Batman had a fade and stuff and the stupid little points on the side of the mouthpiece. The sonar suit itself however was illmatic.

I always hated the Bat symbol on the '89 suit. Those two extra points just made it look wrong. That bugged me to no end. I also thought the cowl was way too big in '89. When BR came out I was thrilled that they had fixed those two issues. What was the story with the '89 symbol anyway? They used the proper symbol as the movie logo for the posters and opening credits but he doesn't wear it in the movie.
I also liked the panther suit and the sonar suit. I liked how he put on the new costume toward the end of the movie and it had the big updated bat symbol on it like in the comics.
While the change in costume worked well in BF I HATED it in B&R. It drove me nuts how time was critical and they had to save the world, but they had time to run home and change first. That was just bad.

I never was bothered by the nips.

I love it more than anything, thats why its tattooed on my arm! SO CLASSIC!

When watching the film its not like your focusing in on them the whole time, those damn nipples on that suit, it ruined the whole film for me lol.

It's a good suit but it doesn't beat the Batman Begins suit.
Also batboy99, Good Job on making that suit look better because the nipples on it made the suit look ridiculous.

the Begins suit wasnt that great, it looked like crap when it was all pieced together. nothing went with the rest. the cape looked like a blanket and the suit looked rubber. it didnt even attempt to look organic, it was like "yeah, im batman, and this is my blatantly obvious rubber suit". ugh, i did not like that look at all, and coupled with that monster of a cowl, its probably one of the worst batsuits. the schumacher suits may have had nipples, but take those away, and its an amazing looking suit that is actually comic accurate. the begins suit is as far from "classic" batman suit as possible. IMO the only truly menacing looking batsuit was the B89 suit.

same here, i never notice them when im watching the movie. and even then, so ****ing what? ppl blow that stuff way out of proportion. if it ruins the movie for you.....thats sad, actually.

 

[RobC]

I never bothered with the nips until I got the internet.

Fanboys changed the way I think forever...

Really? And you have a problem with BB suit not being organic looking & that the cape look like a blanket? Pot meet kettle.

And if you think BB suit isn't comic accurate, neither is BR. After all, the only comic accurate about it was the oval & the cowl. Sound very much like BB suit there.
